The Carolina Panthers cut the face of the franchise, Steve Smith, and let the only other three wide receivers on the roster that caught a pass last season leave as free agents. Tight end Greg Olsen is the only proven receiver returning from last season’s squad. Olsen should be Cam Newton’s favorite target this season.

Things look good for a another win for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this Sunday in Carolina. The Bucs are coming off a great win against the Chargers, while the Panthers lost last week to the Broncos 36-14.
